“My 2023 Chevy Bolt LT is a cute, extremely practical, fun little car to own and drive. I mostly love it. The only things I could be happier about is the range and the charging speed, but I was aware of these things and still chose to buy the car. If I had it to do over, I'd purchase this car again.”
2023 Chevrolet Bolt: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2023 Chevrolet Bolt is a carryover with no major changes. The Bolt EV and Bolt EUV retain the same batteries, range, charging hardware, screens, and safety features as their 2022 versions.
About the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt
Refreshed Bolt EV (introduced for 2022) and first-generation Bolt EUV (introduced for 2022); 2023 is the final model year for both before production ended.
The Bolt family is Chevrolet’s practical, budget-minded EV line. The focus is everyday usability: compact outside size, useful real-world electric range, simple charging, hatchback flexibility, and familiar touchscreen tech instead of luxury or performance drama. Within that formula, the Bolt EV is the smaller city-friendly hatchback, while the Bolt EUV adds a longer wheelbase, more rear-seat room, and a more crossover-like shape for shoppers who want extra space without moving up to a much larger EV.
The Bolt EV is the smaller hatchback, with a 259-mile EPA range and a 10.2-inch touchscreen; its 2LT trim adds leather seating, heated front seats, and a surround-view camera. The roomier Bolt EUV has more rear-seat space and a 247-mile EPA range, while the Premier trim adds heated and ventilated leather front seats, adaptive cruise control, and extra camera views.

2023 Chevrolet Bolt
(645 reviews)
“Chevy's electric cars are getting better each year. It's affordable and a better value compared to TESLA”
“I had heard a lot of nice things about my car from friends. I was able to test drive one that a friend owns and liked the way it drove. I have always wanted an EV. I love not having so much maintenance on this car and not having to buy gas. It looks cool... sounds cool... and I call it my little space ship!”
